[1] The line's revenue was mostly made from tonnage incident to the lumber industry,[1] but it did also carry passengers and other freight.
[1] The C&CRR was sold in September 1911 to the Memphis, Dallas and Gulf Railroad, and was operated by that company until April 1913 when the purchaser failed to comply with the sale agreement.

[7] C&CRR #11, a 2-6-2 built for the road by Baldwin, was sold to the Reader Railroad in Arkansas in 1941, and has had multiple other owners over time, ending up on static display in Riney-B Park near Nicholasville, Kentucky where it still resides.
